Default Front dash-vent fix

Hi, My dash fixture was completely removed from the dash, and the dash itself was beginning to bow outward. Using JB weld epoxy did the trick.

Before applying the weld I cleaned the surface, as suggested. I applied a thin bead of this stuff along the edge of the fixture and inserted back into the dash, used whatever I could find to keep it inplace for 24 hours. Appears to be holding after 48 hours later.

Cheers, Stuart
